BROKERAGE VIEW:: ICICI Securities on Titan Co
RATING: HOLD | TARGET PRICE: Rs 1,000
Stores that have recovered to 80% of pre-COVID levels form a very small portion of overall revenue and recovery is likely to be delayed (discretionary nature and impulse-led purchases, touch-and-feel requirement and low footfalls at stores as consumers remain vary of travelling out). Having said that, the long-term formalisation and market share gains narrative only gets stronger. Customer acquisition is likely to accelerate with the introduction of a new growth engine – grow the core (more designs in low price range). Maintain HOLD.

BROKERAGE VIEW:: MOFSL on HUL
RATING: BUY | TARGET PRICE: Rs 2,400
Despite being the largest consumer company in India, its 10-year sales/EBITDA/PAT growth has been healthy at 8.1%/13.3%/12.4% CAGR. Earnings growth has consistently gained momentum in recent years, which is particularly impressive given the weak mid-single earnings growth posted by (much smaller) peers in recent years. HUVR has delivered EBITDA/PAT CAGR of 13%/13.1% in the last five years, while both EBITDA/PAT have reported ~17% CAGR in the last three years ending FY20.

BROKERAGE VIEW:: ICICI Securities on PVR
We continue to believe PVR is a proxy play on urban/semi urban discretionary spends. However, leisure activities and discretionary spend will take a backseat during a stressed macroeconomic setup in the near term. Current cash of | 227 crore raising of Rs 300 crore via rights issue is likely to ensure liquidity in near term. We will closely track the reopening of cinemas amid Covid-19 and turn buyer only when we witness footfall revival and stability. We maintain HOLD rating and value the stock at 10x FY22E (ex-Ind-AS) EV/EBITDA with a target price of Rs 1,085/share.

Nifty50 finds it tough to breach 10,300
“The level of 10,300 acted as a major barrier. The market slumped mainly due to sudden weakness in global markets and a surge in the Dollar Index. Worldwide investors are turning cautious on equity as the past rise was significant and uninterrupted. We are also witnessing a similar trend in our markets, however, if the market defends the level of 9,940 then it would be positive for the market. Buying is advisable if the market drops below the level of 9,940 and recovers back. On the higher side, the level of 10,170 would be a major hurdle,” said Shrikant Chouhan, executive vice president, equity technical research, Kotak Securities. READ MORE

Rating: ACCUMULATE | CMP: Rs 1,087 | TP: Rs 1,131
While we continue to maintain our positive stance on the multiplex space (low ticket consumer discretionary play) near term challenges with respect to fixed cost and liquidity management persist given the leveraged BS of PVR (D/E of 0.9x as of FY20). As a result, we downgrade the stock to ACCUMULATE (BUY earlier)
effectively valuing it at EV/EBITDA multiple of 10x (earlier 8.5x; long period average is 12x) with a TP of Rs 1,131 (Rs 1,518 earlier).
